With our local iommu workaround reverted, 5 out of 37 test machines failed to
boot cleanly, and 1 other machine failed to wake up cleanly from S3, all due
to coretemp / iommu lockdep splat reported.

With this coretemp patch on top, the lockdep splat was not reported on any
machine.

This patch seems to fix the coretemp / iommu lockdep splat issue.
